Excerpt from Productive Vegetable Growing
A thorough understanding of the temperature requirements Of the different crops is considered of such vital importance to productive vegetable growing that this feature is made the basis of the classification of vegetables used in the present volume, and is given special prominence in the cultural directions for the various crops.
The aim throughout the book has been to emphasize principles rather than mere details Of practice. The order Of presentation has been carefully planned, and in using the book as a text, the various topics should be taken up in the order presented. The Suggestions for Laboratory Work, in Chapter XXXIII, how ever, should be read by the instructor before beginning the course.
In discussing the handling of the individual crops it is assumed that the earlier chapters of the book have already been mastered, and details Of numerous operations are not repeated.
